his issue of DreamSeeker Magazine crosses boundaries of faith, cul-tural, national, worldview understandings, and more. Article afterarticle invites us to think about what is Other than our selves, circum-stances, preferences, current arrangements.Dorothy Yoder Nyce invites us to dream of a melting of the icethat in freezing our faith commitments prevents our grasping thevalue of other understandings. Titus Bender wants us to grasp thatthe view from “I”we so regularly champion in North America mustgive way to “We”lest we perish. Annie Wenger-Nabigon asks us tofeel our way through what happens when a member of an oppressingpeople marries a member of those oppressed. Brenda Hartman-Souder invites us to join her in Nigeria where faith like Margaret’shelps keep her on course.Drawing us into pondering the nature of crazy and sane institu-tions, Alan Soffin helps us consider the possibility that many of theinstitutions we champion are actually crazy, and institutions otherthan those we tend to celebrate are the sane ones. Somewhat similarly if focusing over a century earlier, Daniel Hertzler’s reviews of bookson the Civil War show us that what looks like sane violence from oneperspective can look problematic indeed from another.Noël R. King’s gives us a fresh angle of vision on ideas, whichsquirm away to become separate from us, originating with but end-ing up as other than us. In my column, I hope to show us how evenfamily torment can yield to family transcendence. And the poets helpus see across boundaries of seasons and kinds.
